| Résumé : | The safety of nuclear power plants (NPPs) significantly relies on the reliability of offsite power. In particular, the loss of offsite power (LOOP) event is an important contributor to the total residual risk at NPPs. A particular category of LOOP events is due to the occurrence of failures in the transmission power system to which the NPP is connected (grid-related LOOP event). In such kind of events, the coupling between the dynamics of the power system and the failure of protection systems plays a crucial role. In that respect, a probabilistic risk/safety assessment (PRA/PSA) of grid-related LOOP events must thus rely on dynamic reliability methodologies. A PRA/PSA methodology based on Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is developed for such a purpose. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated on a test system. |
